'Vestas', damaged in a massive night-collision with a fisherman's boat in the approach to Hong Kong will not be ready to start to leg 6 direcion Auckland. The team of Charlie Enright USA and Mark Towill USA has already loaded its VOR65 on a cargo ship to Auckland as the repair could not be made in Hong Kong. Apparently, a new bow will be flown in from Italy and there should be enough time left to refit the boat before the start to leg 7 on March 18.
The news.
